Let's try to keep this energy right. We didn't know how to clock it last week. I'm feeling good, man. Um, you know, I had a good week. The opening day was this week, opening day night for us, for the Yankees. You know, we won the first game. Uh we talk about that a little bit later, man.

unknown 1:01

You know how we're going to do it.

SPEAKER_07 1:03

Really?

SPEAKER_02 1:10

Um, yeah, my week is good. Except for today. They try to play me in the nail salon. We don't like that. No new set.

SPEAKER_06 1:18

You're not, we're not feeling that. That's crazy. Is it is that is she a nail ticket? Oh, you got the same one?

SPEAKER_02 1:25

No, it's the same one. But she got a good price, but she was invited. But she's not talking about appointments. But her price is good. $55 per set? Come on, no. I do my own nails.

SPEAKER_01 1:34

Oh.

SPEAKER_02 1:39

I thought you actually went to the slide. Okay.

SPEAKER_08 1:44

Old mask swami. You know, my week was pretty good. Yesterday I watched the versus Tank versus uh Tyrese. Tank was out there playing with the boy. Maybe playing hits. No, not just playing hits. Like he was playing with the boy. Talk about how like Tyrese wore this nasty ass button. Um turtleneck, it was it had to go. He was looking to mess. And yeah, and Tank really was like, Maybe he was trying to like. Nah. Maybe he was trying to bring it back. I I wore a turtleneck a couple weeks ago. It wasn't the same. I'm telling you, I wore a turtleneck a couple weeks ago. It wasn't the same.

SPEAKER_07 2:18

Wait, what's what's wrong? What's wrong with turtleneck?

SPEAKER_08 2:21

It's nothing wrong with turtlenecks. I just said I wore one a couple weeks ago. I'm saying his turtleneck was not it. What color was his turtleneck? It was black, but it just it wasn't it. Wait, wait, wait.

SPEAKER_07 2:34

No homo, no homo, no homo. His shit wasn't tight.

SPEAKER_08 2:37

No, it was. You about to sing to people. Why do your turtlenecks so tight? And you got like you got like rhinestones coming off the side of the phone. That's what it was. Coming off the side of the jacket and stuff. Yeah. That's a freaky tank did his thing, though. Tank did his thing. That was the tank. That was the vote for the man. Yes, for sure. That was the both.

SPEAKER_06 2:55

Alright, we're gonna get right into it, y'all. We had a not a so long, but it's a long week, but a hectic week. First thing we got in the city said, what second? We got the shit got scary in LaGuardia, y'all. Y'all saw the Air Canada flight and uh Port Authority, I guess we'll say fire truck collided during the landing. Killed the two pilots. I believe the stewardess is still critical. It's a scary time in general. We've been talking about a podcast before, so we'll touch on that. We also got the TSA news. They just I guess not more news. Today, as of today, they kinda president Trump didn't do a real we're gonna get these guys back in office. So let's just get right into it. You guys thought on uh the whole collision that happened at first, we didn't know how you think about that, bro.

SPEAKER_03 3:35

That was crazy, like uh they actually showed it on TikTok, like you know, you could see it on TikTok, and that was the end thing, like they said that the students like it was in the jump seat, and she was still like in the jump seat, like upon FD5, heard about it. It was crazy, like that's insane. That's really insane. Like we were um remember when they was like shooting down airplanes and stuff like that, or airplanes was crashing, or whatever now it's crashing one land, like instead of in the air, that's it.

SPEAKER_01 4:09

Crazy.

SPEAKER_07 4:15

It is very scary, and I do have like a flight attendant, like uh sister. So like for me, like this kind of person I'm like, yeah, like I don't want to be I want you to be safe, like pay attention, make sure you like I don't even know how you prepare for something like this because it's not like you look both ways before you go I think it's one of those situations where you know it's definitely those person with those families.

SPEAKER_06 4:41

But even when you look at it, you know, this is something where you could do everything right in the woman's sake, it just changed your whole life, right? You know what I'm saying? And in this situation, that's what we saw where he had these pilots who were doing their job and trying to land a plane and they felt that their life was taken cut short from when they did the right thing. They were just trying to land the plane, get everybody home safe. You know, that's usually I I actually can't stand people do this when the plane lands and everybody claps. I actually it's like a pet peeve. Why you don't like that? Whoa. Relax, relax, guys. Let's get the levels right. I'm actually very disappointed in that. It was just never like my thing. Like I I I I pray. I'm big, I'm very religious. I pray before and after the plane lands and takes off. But when everybody just like starts tap, it just feels so like I don't know, it just feels they're happy that they usually feels like a choke. Like when you watch a movie and it's like supposed to happen. I'm corny, I just not it was just never my type of thing, you know what I'm saying? Y'all might be mad at me, but I agree with him.

SPEAKER_08 5:36

Yeah, like when you clap after a plane land, or like we in a movie theater and you clap at the end, it that's terrible to me. Yeah, like those aren't like you're clapping for something that's supposed to happen. Like we're supposed to land safely, guys. This is their job, this is what they get paid to do.

SPEAKER_07 5:51

Can we can we let people enjoy things?

SPEAKER_08 5:54

No, I don't know. You can enjoy that your that your life is safe, but that's my expectation, so I'm not clapping. Yeah, like I don't know.

SPEAKER_06 6:01

Not driving a whole boot, like when you drive on the bus, don't sit there and clap that we all like got their safe. Like, I just feel like some things are just so it's a difference.

SPEAKER_02 6:07

Yeah, I mean, I think it's more of just people being grateful that they got their safe.

SPEAKER_06 6:12

So why would you drive when you're in the car?

SPEAKER_02 6:14

Um, I definitely do the sign of the cross when I'm in the car. I'm crossing a bridge and anything. Yeah, I'm gonna go.

SPEAKER_06 6:18

Yeah, but you ain't clapping when you reach your destination.

SPEAKER_07 6:21

But you maybe you're in your Uber, like yeah, Uber driver. Yeah, Uber driver. But people drive more than they fly. Right.

SPEAKER_06 6:29

All right, so when you're in the pool, do you that's more normalized?

SPEAKER_07 6:33

I don't actually I don't know if they do that.

SPEAKER_06 6:35

I I've been on pools. They don't do that. They don't do that. I think it's a stigma with flying, but like like a pool is more dangerous than flying. It's always driving.

SPEAKER_08 6:45

Debatable. That's true. I'm gonna be honest with you, I just think it's ghetto. I mean, I ain't gonna say that's exactly gonna it's actually cultures that are doing this.

SPEAKER_07 6:54

Ghetto is crazy.

SPEAKER_08 6:56

You can you can be you can be ghetto, you can be ghetto in any culture, my guy.

SPEAKER_01 7:00

Whoa, you're gonna get this canceled.

SPEAKER_06 7:03

That's crazy. Any culture can be ghetto. That was next topic. So, in regards to this fight and everything else that's going on, we also got the long waiting times in TSA, mainly in Houston, because they have spring break. Average break time in Houston, Atlanta is about 120 minutes.

SPEAKER_07 7:19

You want to know how long I waited? TSA pre-check. Three minutes.

SPEAKER_06 7:24

I mean, you was before that's right. No, you was during the time. No, I was during the time. It was literally two weeks ago. But you missed the missed the peak time, so you wasn't flying at peak hours.

SPEAKER_07 7:31

I mean, yeah, I don't fly on peak hours, but that's just a smart travel. My flight is at 6 a.m. Oh, that's why. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 7:38

So he got it. You know what I'm saying? So I think it's crazy though, when you think about it that so I was me and the boys talking to usually paying the trip or whatever, but I was saying like I'm going through all this stuff where I'm trying to not renew my passport. But now it's like I'm not mad at not traveling now. Cause this is I can't imagine spending three hours in the airport. Yeah. Like I can't live in. Like, I can't even I mean, even like us as fans, they're like, yo, we leave four hours to go to the plane. I see now. Wow, like that's like four hours is insane, bro. That's a whole Lord of the Rings movie. Yeah, I'm not a big thing. Not a movie.

SPEAKER_07 8:15

I'm not waiting that long.

SPEAKER_02 8:16

Listen, I got stuck one time traveling back from Teresa and Cagos in North Carolina, and it was the worst. I did not get home until the next day, and I was not home.

SPEAKER_06 8:27

That's it. I don't have words, you know, and it's with the more we talk about it, more how comfortable we want people to get with flying. You think about how in certain situations where we put so much pressure on be constantly checking that flight, because it's always all it's like the MTA, like you know something's gonna happen when we gotta catch that flight. You feel like, oh, uh, my flights gonna get delayed, this is that. Now people are just straight up missing their flight. Like, did y'all see the lines? Some of these lines were out at the airport. Yeah, for sure. Yeah, that was crazy. That's crazy, bro. I've never seen that before.

SPEAKER_02 8:52

In my life, like, I'm gonna just change the flight. It's fine.

SPEAKER_08 8:55

Now you gotta go to the person in the front, like, yo, hundred dollars.

SPEAKER_06 8:58

Yeah, they even giving it up. I saw one where they this guy was flying out of Newark. He got there three hours before his flight, and the TSA agent you said, yo, bro, you're not gonna make it. If I was you, I'll catch the flight to JFK right now. Wow. He had to raise $100, just go to JFK. Wow. Like, this is that is crazy, bro. Like, I would be I find it outrageous to be in some situations. Right. But when we talk about the main place being in Houston, the biggest reason why Houston's having this surge and waiting aside from the government shutdown is spring break. So, Brittany, I'm gonna go to you.

SPEAKER_03 9:28

The unks was outside. Oh that's what TikTok's and the unks is outside.

SPEAKER_02 9:36

They look like they was a little older than some unks, though.

SPEAKER_03 9:38

Grandpa's thoughts on adults being a part of the house. I have friends out there. They look like they were lit. Like, I ain't gonna front. They about 29.

SPEAKER_06 9:50

That's too old. Oh, you just pick up to the mic, Brittany.

SPEAKER_03 9:53

Not too much with my girlies, but no, um, it looked like a tomb was tied.

SPEAKER_08 9:58

I'm not gonna front, like wait, wait, so going based off that, what y'all think is the oldest you should the oldest you should be going to spring break?

SPEAKER_00 10:12

I'm not gonna lie. I guess after 4 30, you don't need that.

SPEAKER_06 10:21

You gotta speak into the mic. You talking about you're not trying to throw your girls on the bus.

SPEAKER_03 10:26

My girlies is out there having a time. My girlies is out there having a time now, but like I feel like spring break is a college thing. Like, I socialize everything with like things like that with college. So, like college, Miami, you know, Houston, different things like that. But right now, me at 32, I'm not going to nobody spring break. Like, I'm just not doing it. But shout out to my girls that went, they had a time. Don't shout through it.

SPEAKER_07 10:54

Yeah, we don't do it, but well, I'm confused of why is Houston the spring break location now. Like back in my father. Back in my days, we was it was Miami. We were trying to be in Miami.

SPEAKER_06 11:05

I saw that they were shutting like a lot of like Florida's like over the shit. Like, they're shut it down. It was a curfew.

SPEAKER_02 11:11

No, Florida was fed up. Like, get the fuck out of here. Fed up. Houston about to be nice.

SPEAKER_04 11:16

They're about to shut down.

SPEAKER_01 11:17

There's no beach there, so I don't know. I don't know why they're over there. Yeah, that's too.

SPEAKER_06 11:21

So they had videos and clips of uh uh what's the name of that um famous Houston uh swim club out there? There's like three hour wait time just against like uh Area 52. I might be name I'm not familiar with Houston like that big world, but Anthony or Regula. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, Regula. They got the videos of like the three hour wait time. And I'm like, bro, as a man, I don't understand why. Even as an adult, like what what is there's so many other places out there. I'd rather go to Cancun or something. I don't Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 11:51

Oh, I thought you were talking about the strip club. I was gonna give you the reason why. Nah, the strip club is a different story. I'm on my business.

SPEAKER_08 11:56

Oh, so now give us the reason why now for the strip club.

SPEAKER_07 11:59

I mean the strip club is Drake and Drake and them shouted it out, so that's where you know probably everybody wanna go now.

SPEAKER_01 12:05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_08 12:07

So that's kind of like Magic City. We're gonna give Magic City a shout out because the NBA did them dirty.

SPEAKER_02 12:19

So I'm the youngest one here, and I wouldn't go on spring. Sorry guys, I'm just saying, um I thought the time I'm the youngest one here, guys. I wouldn't go on spring break. Like, like he said, I'll probably go to like Puerto Rico or something or just somewhere else, like just enjoying it.

SPEAKER_03 12:36

At what age would you go though? Like you and a girl's house.

SPEAKER_02 12:39

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 12:41

I mean, because you get a you get a spring break as a college student.

SPEAKER_02 12:45

But I'm going to sing.

SPEAKER_03 12:47

So you might even go and we're everybody else going.

SPEAKER_02 12:49

No, I'm not going. I also feel like after a certain age, what's that age though?

SPEAKER_01 12:57

Um, that's not bad. I feel like that's a good age.

SPEAKER_02 13:04

I think 25 is like hang it up. I think 26 now. Time to be grown.

SPEAKER_07 13:09

Time to be grown, and you offer medical insurance from your parents, so nah.

SPEAKER_02 13:15

You're definitely responsible.

SPEAKER_08 13:17

I'm gonna say the same thing, probably around like 25, because you know, some some people do start college a little late. So, you know, I'll I'll cap it at 25. After 25, you probably should be going on guys' trips or girls' trips. We should be doing that before that. But I'm just saying, we don't elevated to the guys' trips and the girls' trips. We need we're not like, oh yeah, I need to take off a week of work to go to spring break. We're not doing that. We don't do that.

SPEAKER_06 13:38

And the crazy part was about this whole Houston, like spring break was they were showing clips of people like there was Houston doesn't have the infrastructure because again, there's no beaches or nothing. So there were videos of people like uh hundreds of people, two to three hundred people in gas stations just playing music. Like, like that, like that's that's crazy to me. And now on top of that, again, like I said last week, where are your fathers? There was clips of people fucking in a gas station. Are you saying that's serious? So basically, you're saying this turned into freaking. Yeah, it's on the frequency. It was the freak name. Yeah, it's the same.

SPEAKER_02 14:08

In the gas station is crazy. I didn't know that.

SPEAKER_06 14:11

And you know what the crazy part is that's probably somebody's girl back home in New York who's not answering her phone. Nah, that's RP. That's not crazy.

SPEAKER_08 14:17

It's not RP to him anyway. You should do better. How you be like, you should have known. You should have known.

SPEAKER_06 14:25

So when you look at it, it's crazy to me. Like, I I I really just can't wrap my mind around so many people like in their shenanigans.

SPEAKER_00 14:34

Jalen, stop looking at me.

SPEAKER_03 14:36

I gotta look at you because your girlfriend is out there. No, they were out there celebrating someone's birthday, and then there was others that went to uh burgers and bottles. What is that?

SPEAKER_08 14:45

So basically, what she's saying is they didn't go for spring break, they just so happened to be there when spring break was going on.

SPEAKER_02 14:52

That's also possible.

SPEAKER_08 14:53

I got you, girlies.

SPEAKER_02 14:54

Yeah, that's also possible. You could just be over there.

SPEAKER_06 15:03

They don't know what spring break is. Okay, I'll play along.

SPEAKER_02 15:07

The aunties, they don't know about that.

SPEAKER_06 15:11

That's crazy. So I'll digest. I digress. We're gonna shift over to the next topic. We're gonna talk about it. Talk about it, big boy. We got the baseball is back.

SPEAKER_07 15:21

Oh, yeah, baseball is back. Opening day. We're here.

SPEAKER_06 15:25

Let's go, Yankees. Let's go, Yankees.

SPEAKER_02 15:30

You gotta take the music on the biggest. Okay, so this this is how I feel about it. So I was raised a mess fan. Okay. I was raised a mess fan because my grandpa was raised in Brooklyn. My dad was born in Brooklyn. Johnny. Okay, Johnny. Shout out to Johnny. And um, but he was raised over here in the Bronx. So I feel like that's why we ended up, you know, becoming Mets fans. So, you know, I gotta stand with grandpa.

SPEAKER_07 15:58

You said the Bronx?

SPEAKER_02 15:59

My dad was raised in the Bronx, but he was born in Brooklyn, but his father, his father, listen.

SPEAKER_09 16:05

You know where my father's at? Where? You know where my father's at? Where? He's not in New York. Get him out of here. I got the Yankees.

SPEAKER_02 16:12

But that's different. You were still raised here though.

SPEAKER_09 16:14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 16:14

Okay, so that's but it's you. I mean, I'm a girl.

SPEAKER_08 16:17

I don't know. And you know what? True, true. She's allowed to think that. You know why? Because you're free, right? So you're allowed to think that. Speaking of free, we we're not gonna shout out no Yankees. We're gonna shout out Freddie Freeman. Freddie Freeman. That was mad corner. Freddie Freeman.

SPEAKER_02 16:32

Yeah, I gotta you gotta zoom in his face when he said that.

SPEAKER_07 16:35

He's trying to get a reaction, but not gonna be a good thing. Yeah, you gotta zoom. I think that's what he wants. Anyway. Anyway, the Yankees and the Mets actually won their home openers. Well, not home opener, sorry. The Mets had a home opener, they won theirs. Um Yankees won on the road. Um I'm excited. Yeah, I'm excited.

SPEAKER_02 16:51

So we could say New York is up right now. Yeah, for sure. But right now we up.

SPEAKER_06 16:55

Aside from the Knicks with a bad loss to Charlotte last night, but Nick did. Did y'all see the baby going crazy in Charlotte?

SPEAKER_04 17:01

That was he was going crazy. I didn't see that. I wasn't gonna talk about it.

SPEAKER_08 17:05

He was whipping the Jalen Brunson jersey. Yeah, he was going crazy. He's like, I gotta like this drink and he was young.

SPEAKER_04 17:17

He was going crazy. He's like, I don't care if they kick me out. Nah, he was going crazy.

SPEAKER_06 17:23

He's known to go crazy in Charlotte because he's got kicked out a couple times after that. Yeah, he was like, I pay for these seats for a fucking time.

SPEAKER_07 17:34

But yeah, what are your expectations for uh New York Inc. Um, what make you happy? I think I think we're gonna do similar to what we did last year. The day before that.

SPEAKER_08 17:48

It's not the we because I support the we if that's your team. It's just funny because similar to what we did last year. It's not vague. That means he's expecting them to lose.

SPEAKER_07 18:00

I have like boy, what is it, like 15 straight winning streaks? I don't I will we can check it, but we have like winning seasons for a very long time. We we win the we win games, we just don't finish.

SPEAKER_06 18:12

Don't win his chip, baseball. Don't win his chip.

SPEAKER_01 18:15

Are we saying that the Yankees are jokers? I I can say they are like I'm gonna go. I gotta instigate a little.

SPEAKER_08 18:23

I love it, I love it because we don't support the Yankees on this side of the county. Okay, now Axe and his team. Hold on.

SPEAKER_07 18:29

The biggest chokers.

SPEAKER_08 18:31

I mean, I would I wouldn't say that.

SPEAKER_07 18:33

You lose every year in the same round. Not the same round.

SPEAKER_08 18:37

At least we make it every year to the same round. We lose the yeah, you know y'all don't. Y'all y'all missed the playoffs not too long ago. We haven't. We've won we've had winning seasons because technically we've had once you started. Wait, what are you talking about? It's not hard to have a winning season. You just have to have one game over your losses. Okay. Have you ever been to a baseball game?

SPEAKER_03 18:54

No, but I'm gonna win, guys.

SPEAKER_06 18:56

We gotta set that up. We gotta get you, we gotta get you in the the bleach.

SPEAKER_02 18:59

First of all, pod outing, we go to a baseball game. Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_08 19:04

Let's support the Mets, though. We can go to a main game and we could go to a night game in a long time. It's crazy for me to say that because like we're rivals, but we can support the Mets over the Yankees any day.

SPEAKER_06 19:16

Yeah, for that. You could even bring Corey, he's got pay for everything.

SPEAKER_08 19:21

I mean, I mean, she bought the Mon Cleesey. She put the Mon Cleesey, so I think he could buy the tickets.

SPEAKER_02 19:28

No, it's even more funny because of how she started the pub.

SPEAKER_06 19:33

Speaking of the um the match, I don't know if you saw up well, Britney and Delight, I don't know if y'all saw us, but we had a good laugh audition in the group chat where in baseball Brittany there's nine innings, as you know. So they have this thing called nine and nine, and City Field is also doing it where every inning you're supposed to eat a hot dog in a beer.

SPEAKER_00 19:49

That sounds crazy.

SPEAKER_06 19:50

That sounds like eating glizzies is kind of crazy. But it's uh it's a bundle. Okay. It's a challenge. It's a challenge, yeah. It's a challenge. I know Jordan's up for, you know, it loves the glizzies.

unknown 20:01

That was great.

SPEAKER_02 20:03

There's an award at the end of the day.

SPEAKER_06 20:04

Yeah, you're prize as a manhood, as a man. Why are you taking down nine fronts?

SPEAKER_02 20:08

Oh, it's not worth it. Wow. I don't know about that. I need a gift. I need a gift. I need a gift.

SPEAKER_06 20:19

They have tequila and ice cream, so you can sip on this tequila and ice cream.

SPEAKER_02 20:25

I need more tickets, you have another gift. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 20:27

I'm not the biggest fan of getting drunk at school. I actually can't stand people to drunk at school in the business. I'm gonna hide out on this one.

SPEAKER_02 20:35

Yeah, I'm gonna hide out on this one because I love getting drunk.

SPEAKER_06 20:38

So, there's a difference between drunk and sloppy messy. Like, I hate a sloppy. Okay, sloppy.

SPEAKER_08 20:45

Nobody likes the sloppy messy feeling.

SPEAKER_02 20:47

Yeah, that's a little crazy. I thought you meant just not doing it.

SPEAKER_06 20:50

Yeah, like you know, you get the double shot with every picture in your souvenir cup, you chilling out there in the stands and it's sung, whatever with your boys, it's Gucci. But once you get like the messy drunk, I'm like, yo, well, who bought this guy? Yeah, I'm not gonna lie.

SPEAKER_02 21:01

MSG is one of those places that I'm not getting fucked up with. No, Emmy wanted the drinks are too much. Because I am not getting up. No, it's not even that. I'm not getting up. You know how hard it is to get up and get back in your seat? Yeah, no, I'm not doing that.

SPEAKER_06 21:15

Me and Ant did the gunner concert, and the drinks there was $25 a drink.

SPEAKER_03 21:19

Excuse me.

SPEAKER_06 21:19

Or and a double was like 32.

SPEAKER_03 21:21

It's like y'all need the ladies with y'all with the big bags, the sneaks and stuff.

SPEAKER_06 21:25

Low-key, so it's like when I go to certain events, I'll be like, I I usually sometimes like the gunner concert, I bought two drinks off rip because I wasn't getting I wasn't going back. Yeah. Like sometimes that's low-key, like the move.

SPEAKER_03 21:34

So drinks on you when we go to this baseball game.

SPEAKER_06 21:38

Yeah, I heard it yeah. Wait, what? Corey. Corey's not there, that's what's going on. So we're gonna switch topics also inside Yankee Stadium. We're back talking about Jay Z as he did at a third concert to add a man. But he did recently sat down with GQ. Him and J. Cole, J. Cole sat down with Cameron. Jay Z sat down with GQ and they both had some interesting things to say. So Jordan, I'm gonna start with you, but what was your takeaway from Jay-Z's comments? Because one thing I think being uh the Drake comment with the Super Bowl, where he basically said that he doesn't think that uh the battle was good for hip hop. And the second thing being that he he ended the the uh interview by saying I'm fucking Jay-Z. Like I didn't care if uh Kendrick and Drake were beefing. I picked the hottest artist. So what are your thoughts on that?

SPEAKER_08 22:26

You know what? I I looked at that situation and I thought like man, this dude might not get my money now for this Yankee Stadium. Because I'm gonna be honest with you, I didn't really I didn't really appreciate what he tried to sell to the people when he did that interview. Because one, you did choose a side. You knew exactly what you was doing when you did that whole thing. So you don't believe him? I don't believe him at all. Especially they tried to he tried he tried to act, he tried to act like as if he was like this big mature guy and he's more mature than everybody else that's making music now, and that's why he doesn't support the rappers beefing anymore. But you already know, but they already there's a lot of talks about him behind the scenes making motions for rappers to get into secret beefs, or like him black all and people, all that stuff. And I'm a big person on if you have actions that you did, stand on it. Don't don't go out there and try to portray something that you do not actually believe in. Just real quick. So you think that you think he needed the the beef to happen? Is that what you're saying? I think he tried to use it to help tear down one artist that he felt was getting the attention or the picture to be bigger than him. I.e. Drake. Yes, i.e. Drake. But then also um not only to not only to tear him down, but to specifically like take the attention away from both of them. Because now we're using one artist to get at the other artist. So now they're both attacking each other and kind of defaming them to like each fan base. So now their attention goes down, whereas then now I'm Jay-Z, it's about to be my 30th anniversary, and I'm coming out with this concert.

SPEAKER_06 24:08

And that was a year and a half ago, though.

SPEAKER_08 24:10

I'm just saying, like, all of this is a play. Because he's coming out with a new album, all of that stuff. So now you know the attention is gonna be on him. Jordan's clear the conspiracy theorist of. I guess.

SPEAKER_06 24:21

That's how we I guess he's going crazy right now. So wait, well, so you don't think that he could actually believe that, yo, I'm older now, he's almost 60. Like, yo, I don't I don't see the point in beating it.

SPEAKER_08 24:32

Not at all, because literally last year, the year before that, he had verses on songs where he's actually taking shots at people. Like Fat Joe just released that he like he has songs where he's actually going at people that's just not released yet. So magically, because you're doing this interview, now all of a sudden you matured more than everybody else and you don't believe in beef.

SPEAKER_06 24:54

I mean, he did say that he regrets to beef and nah. Which I think that I think he's being honest when he said that. Yeah, but look how long ago that was. Yeah, he said, I mean, in too many words, he basically said it was a different time and rap the beef was essentially what he was saying, which I did understand this part is rap beef then is different than now because when with social media involved, it's a whole different element. Because I think we all could agree hip hop is an adversarial sort. Like you are I'm I get more money than you, I see more women than you, X, Y, and Z, right? But when you look at how the Kendrick and Drake beef kind of got to a point where the climax was recalling someone a pedophile, and then you also saying, Oh, you're you're a woman beater or you you beat your wife or whatever. I think as fans, a lot of us took that as but now attacking the character of these musicians, which uh to a point I did. And I so when I was listening to this, I was reflecting on it in the in real time. I was like, yo, he's actually right, because I was kind of saying, yo, Drake is this. I know he's not, but it also was a point of me kind of also picking the side. Switching the beef, you know, there's always a winner and a loser in any in this sport, you know. Ballet rap is a sport. But when you also look at it, I think he does have a point where he was saying that the beef becomes bigger with social media, especially with the internet, because now it's so much mud being thrown at people and there's no line. Like before, always was kids and wife is off limits, but that certainly wasn't the case in a lot of battles. But then you also just had the recent um what's the boy from Brooklyn? Big Well, um Joey Badass and uh Ray Bon had a beef. Oh, yeah. But Niz was kind of they was just sparring.

SPEAKER_00 26:30

I'm from Brooklyn, Joe.

SPEAKER_06 26:31

I'm not from Brooklyn. I mean, I don't know if you listen to Joey Badass. Don't do that.

SPEAKER_08 26:35

You listen to Joey Badass?

SPEAKER_03 26:37

I do.

SPEAKER_08 26:38

You know what you're gonna say? Soraya's man.

SPEAKER_06 26:41

I don't know who that is.

SPEAKER_03 26:42

Actually, I'm trying to say it was a Netflix or film.

SPEAKER_06 26:46

That name do you want to look at them?

SPEAKER_03 26:48

Yeah, it's from Empire, it's just like a baby. I don't watch Empire.

SPEAKER_02 26:55

I'm not even talking about a real person.

SPEAKER_04 27:03

Like, I don't know, like America, okay.

SPEAKER_07 27:08

Yeah, so I think it's I think it's different. Like, what do you think? I mean, I don't know. I'm one two sides of it, I guess. Um I enjoyed I enjoyed the back and forth. Um going back back and forth for the rap rap battle, because this is not Drake's this is not Drake's first rap battle. I mean, and uh I enjoyed his others regardless of who won and who lost, right? Um I think this is a cop out from Jay-Z for sure. But um also is it also could be two things could be true, right? Um he could have just picked the hottest rap, the hottest person at the time, um, because that's where everybody was pushing and off of Drake's name, so that's what they kept doing. So of course he was the hottest because of Drake. So yeah. Correct.

SPEAKER_08 27:53

I mean, but if you're the hottest, that would mean that you would be the one selling more, right? Necessarily.

SPEAKER_06 27:58

I mean, we can't make it Cherry did a Super Bowl. She wasn't the number one selling artist, but she did the Super Bowl. Who Kendrick was the most super.

SPEAKER_07 28:04

No, but I'm saying, but what makes what makes you the most hot? The most botted.

SPEAKER_08 28:08

No, but I'm saying, but what makes you the most hot? That would be the sales, right? That people talking about you and stuff.

SPEAKER_02 28:13

The person that got the Grammy.

SPEAKER_08 28:14

Oh Grammy's Grammys has nothing.

SPEAKER_02 28:17

It doesn't matter, like he got a Grammy. Grammy never equals hot.

SPEAKER_07 28:23

Kendrick just opened his mouth.

SPEAKER_08 28:25

Someone go get up my Grammy right now.

SPEAKER_06 28:26

So wait, so we gave me join this club to win uh, but that's awesome. Grammys are two different things. No, no, no. I'm gonna be honest with you.

SPEAKER_08 28:46

I don't believe that's true because Grammy, and I don't think that's okay. That's what who they want to win. It's not, it's not, it's usually not gonna be who deserves to win, it's who they want to win. They don't think Kendrick deserves to win. Kendrick, it don't matter what he put out, he was gonna win that regardless. He was gonna win that regardless. Britney, what are your thoughts?

SPEAKER_03 29:05

I thought y'all ain't like Jay-Z last week. So oh my god, you didn't say that. You actually right, you did say that. You did say that.

SPEAKER_06 29:11

So let me ask you this. What do you how do you feel about J Cole when he stepped into his skit with with uh Cam on he was saying what he was saying?

SPEAKER_03 29:18

So I actually didn't know it was a skit. That was crazy. Like I was over here, like, yo, Cameron looks scared. J. Cole was about to put some hair like you know, getting up. I actually seen today J. Cole was trying to be a part of G Unit or something like that.

SPEAKER_06 29:35

I think he mentioned that 50 Cent didn't want to sign up, but that was at a point in time where he said he wear tight jeans. Yeah, he didn't.

unknown 29:40

I've never seen him wear tight jeans.

SPEAKER_06 29:42

This is St. John's though. That's why I'm gonna look not for nothing. They know down south dudes dressed weird. They don't. This one he was like, no, no, no, no, but this is when yeah, St. John's. Yeah, so he probably didn't have the swag. Like he probably was like trying to find his like identity with how he dressed, but he know 50 was you know, but I I don't see him in Got South.

SPEAKER_03 30:02

That would have ended badly. But um him and Kim on, I definitely didn't know his face. Like I really thought he was about to go up there.

SPEAKER_08 30:14

Wait, J. Cole? So you thought he punked him into giving him an interview? I really didn't.

SPEAKER_04 30:20

I thought J. Cole. Jermaine Cole.

SPEAKER_02 30:24

But I felt for it, that's why I was proud of.

SPEAKER_03 30:26

Yeah, I'm proud of my mama. I was like, yeah. I really thought it was real.

SPEAKER_06 30:32

At no point did you really think that was real? I did. I too, I really did. Yeah, like that's funny so until you said it, I was like, what are your what are your thoughts on particularly what Drake Cole was saying as it pertains to it seems that the way it was portrayed in the interview, that Jake Cole seems to be or wants to be seen as the one who wants Kendrick and Drake to become like that's what I took out of it. Like when he talked about the big three song that was supposed to happen, he mentioned that he had the he he got the beat and then he await was awaiting for Kendrick to do it. He resulted Kendrick. And so it seems that Drake Cole is like that middleman type of guy. And I think this kind of I'm probably the biggest J. Cole fan on the out of all of you guys. Debatable. Yeah, I said maybe. But I did I'm just saying debatable because of your antics these past two years. But keep going. I did kind of lose a form of not respect, but like I think it's hard, like I mentioned before, like hip hop is an adversarial sport. So when you shy away from having certain battles in these natures, say it again. What? What you just said.

SPEAKER_07 31:43

Well, which Wibbody did he shy?

SPEAKER_06 31:44

He shy away from it. I'm not you're gonna let me finish with it. I just want to shine. I'm saying on business guys, like I love it. You know, so I feel like I'm like Jay Z. Nah, but this is the thing though. That ball is you can't the the the DNA of hip hop is is rap, like that you can't shy away from that. And even if you're a conscientious rapper, which he claims to be, I think Nas is also conscientious and such and kind of a street rapper, also. But he says some shit, you'd be like, yo, he still got in the ring of spot with the best of the best. And from what J. Cole was saying, he I get it. We all try to make not try, but we all want to be more aware about mental health and don't want to waste extra energy. But nobody forced you to get into that spot, into that position where you had to say something. You said you was listening to your boys or whatever, but bro, you you feed your boys, you're the you're the you're the head of the table. So when you was in this situation to get in this beef that you you was talking crazy on the victory, you know what I'm saying? And talking crazy after the victory, and then you had that drop that seven-minute track that I've never in my history seen a rapper play out the track and then take it off. Like that's like I've never seen a rapper do that. You get what I'm saying? I hit a pain. And it wasn't even it wasn't even a bad song either.

SPEAKER_08 32:54

It wasn't even a bad song.

SPEAKER_02 32:55

I mean, it wasn't. I just feel like I feel like when he put it out, I feel like it was playful. Like, I feel like he was just trying to be playful with it. And then they took it on some like I don't I don't think.

SPEAKER_03 33:06

Yeah, now I don't think he really wanted to do it. Like, and he just didn't know how to come back from starting something and then really the end.

SPEAKER_08 33:16

I'm gonna be honest with you for sure. Especially because, right? So that situation is like you know how like you're about to get into a fight, you're like, yeah, I'm gonna beat this person up. And then right when you're about to do it. Second thought. And then and then right when you're just like, ah, you know what, I really don't want to fight. But now you already done jumped in the ring. That's pretty much what he did. Cause like that first track, it wasn't really like a playful, like, all right, I'm gonna just throw shots because he's not gonna respond or nothing. That's like the first jab you do just to see what they come with next when you start a rap beef. But so it was it was literally something to start the beef.

SPEAKER_06 33:51

Right, but the the and I could be wrong from saying this, but I do feel like it was well known that Drake and Kendrick didn't like each other. So I also feel like this one side battle that they were gonna have was bound to happen.

SPEAKER_07 34:05

No, no, I I disagree. I only I only disagree because yes, you're right, but I have right. Yeah, because the uh interview J. Cole said that Drake sent out a verse to he I he asked Doc for his verse. But this is supposed to be Drake and Doc on Kendrick only, correct. And then so Kendrick took too long, like as he always does or whatever. I don't know. But then he was like, fuck that, I'm gonna go give it a call.

SPEAKER_06 34:29

So according to academics, I forgot, but academics did touch on this. Academics was having uh his little thing in the basement or whatever. He was saying how Kendrick was like, Oh, you want me to be on a song? I don't even want to be a part of you guys. Like, I don't I don't like Drake. That that's what he was like saying, like, I don't want to do a song with him.

SPEAKER_08 34:46

And that's pretty much what it was. The status quo, even like also spoke about this because this is not the first time that Drake has tried to send in a song for Kendrick to get on. He's actually, like, you know, throughout the years, have been sending songs for Kendrick to get on. Because, you know, initially their relationship started off pretty good. He brought out Kendrick on tour. That's what he just did. Yeah, you know, they made a couple songs together. So this is not the first time. So since then, Kendrick has developed like, you know, a problem with Drake, but one that's like unspoken, he never really like presented it to him like, I really don't fuck with you. So Drake was still sending out songs because you know, he he's like, yo, let's work together, let's get these tracks out. Since Kendrick don't fuck with him, that's why he didn't do the first person shooter, and he never even like responded to like because you know Drake sent it into the label, right? He never even responded to the label like to get on the song. And then that's when the song got shifted over to J. Cole. And you know, J. Cole, like you said, trying to be the middleman, was like, yo, the reason why I'm gonna say like the big three, because like you said, he's trying to get those two to come together because he knows all three of us together, like shit, ain't nothing could stop us. We the biggest three in the game right now. So if you're making music, I know people don't like that, bro.

SPEAKER_06 36:01

Like, I don't why you want everybody to be cool with each other, bro? It's rap.

SPEAKER_08 36:04

I mean, but but this is the thing. Like, if like if you my man's and ants my man's and y'all get into something, I'm gonna try to piece it up because like yo, we all know. Oh, but I know someone don't. If I here's the thing, this is why I'm saying that you're I don't think he knew that Kendrick really felt that hatred for Drake. I see what you're saying. I think it was just more so like, yo, they like they just haven't been connecting. So maybe I could be the connecting piece to bring everything together.

SPEAKER_06 36:26

I mean, we're talking behind closed doors, we don't know what really goes on, but I do feel like if you if say you the hottest, like uh like the Cardi B and Nikki thing, right? Like they tried to do Motorsport, but I think it was early on we could tell this they don't they don't like each other for whatever reason. Nah, I don't think so. I think he said that. Nah, that's an ego beef, though. Nah, I think that's more of a ego, and I'm a big Cardi fan. I'm also a big Nikki fan, but I'm a bigger Cardi fan. But I think it's kind of true. Like, Nikki is not one to take on somebody taking the spotlight from her. I think it kind of seems that way. Like, she'll give some female their their props, but I think she also at times doesn't let like doesn't like share, doesn't play nice in the sandbox, which is okay. Some people are just not, you know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_02 37:08

So when it's she gives credit when she knows somebody's not on her level.

SPEAKER_06 37:14

But you know what? I also like it kind of gives like a she exactly if you believe her you wear her.

SPEAKER_02 37:21

Exactly.

SPEAKER_08 37:22

I mean, but you know what? I feel like it's not just a Nikki thing with that situation. Like when it comes to like the female rappers in the game, all of the female rappers in the game, when you reach that top spot, like you're the biggest seller for the females at the time. The next one coming up that looks like they could take that throne or look like they like you know, attacking that throne that you have as the number one, that female artist always starts to like you know, try to devalue them so that they don't reach there. Because Cardi has been guilty of doing that too, and y'all know I I always support Big Cardi from the BX. But she's also been guilty of doing that too. So I think it's just like, you know, that top spot, that throne for the female rappers. Because, you know, rap is like you said, it's a sport, it's an ego thing. So you don't want anybody that's gonna be close to you, which is why Jay-Z is. That's what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_06 38:09

It's an adversarial sport. Like there's like it's comp it's meant to be competitive. I think that's the nature of rap. And speaking of competitive, we're gonna switch topic just a little bit. I'm gonna discuss someone also's like super competitive, one of the best point guards in the game right now. But I recently saw that he's out with an injury with uh collapse long, and that's K Cunningham. So, and I want to get your thoughts on how do you feel about K Cunningham? Potentially, or not potentially, not gonna be able to qualify for athletes like an MVP in all four for the Detroit Pistons. As the Detroit Pistons are currently first in the East.

SPEAKER_07 38:39

I think I think as a competitor, uh for me especially. I I want the best player in the game. So I can say my best player than their best player, right? And it sucks, it kind of sucks because like before we we clearly seen it with loading so people were taking games off and just just because you know to keep themselves fresh or whatever the game, right? And so the NBA scene, like, okay, this is happening, we gotta cap it because you have to be playing with us. Because how you gonna play the game and still win MBA? That's crazy. That's not even the whole season, right? So I believe like it it it needs to be a balance for sure. Like I guess you just verify the fact that all these guys are injured and give it away or whatever. But like it's hard because like I do want to see Cade being in the MVP call, so we can say that um uh Shay is better than him, but you know Shay know who Shay is, Brittany S G A.

SPEAKER_06 39:37

Shea gives Alexander, Canadian dude MVP. And this is how we know Shay.

SPEAKER_08 39:43

He is not the real superstar that everyone thinks he is the reigning MVP.

SPEAKER_06 39:50

I think he's married to I think like a college three years. Do you know who Kate Cunningham is?

SPEAKER_04 39:54

Oh, Hummingbird. I'll be calling him Humming Bird.

SPEAKER_08 39:56

Oh, Hummingbird. K Cunningham? Yeah. But you don't know Shea. No, who makes you go to the games though? Cool. I'm just saying. He was at the game, though. It's all good.

SPEAKER_07 40:04

That has nothing to do with who's better.

SPEAKER_08 40:06

I I didn't say that. I didn't say that. I didn't say that.

SPEAKER_03 40:08

I just didn't know him. Yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_06 40:11

Um my thoughts? No, I mean I was gonna go, but uh, I was mostly gonna say, I mean, I think so. As of now, K has played 61 games, averaging 25 points, I think eight assists and like nine rebounds. Um, I do think it's I'm one of those people when it comes to like sports, like not a sports historian, but like I like to look at like stats from like back in the day. So when you be able to look at K stats from 15 years from now, maybe 20 years from now, you'll be like, damn, he wasn't all poor with those numbers. And it's gonna be it'll be it'll look like he didn't kill, but it's just because he didn't qualify because of the rule. And I think that's how you're gonna have to look at like a lot of players where they don't have like certain their hurt or whatever they just they just don't this rule kind of uh inhibits them from getting the credit that they deserve, especially in the what you do.

SPEAKER_08 40:55

I mean, I agree with you there because you look at his numbers, and he's like one of three players to average the stats that he's averaging right now, which is insane to say that he's not gonna qualify for an award just because of four games. Now, granted, I do agree that the NBA should keep it at the 65 game rule because that little management shit was getting out of hand, like for sure. And I don't agree with the the low management because we're not even sure if that actually does save players from getting injured. So I feel like the 65 games is good and it should be capped here, but there should be like a like an except an exception rule, right? Where like if a player was actually injured, like with you know big injuries and stuff like that, they should get like an invisible plus five to make them qualify. You know what I'm saying? But only but only if they're actually close to the capital thing.

SPEAKER_06 41:45

I don't know how you really enforce that in the future, to be honest. I'm not sure how you could really enforce that. But the a lot of my students say have you been have you been to a best one yet? Big fan or no?

unknown 41:57

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 41:57

Of what team?

SPEAKER_02 41:59

Oh as of right now, it is the name.

SPEAKER_06 42:05

All right, I mean that's fair. You over there sign, man.

SPEAKER_07 42:10

Um Boston Who Boston Who? That's kind of crazy. This ain't all my couch. This ain't my couch because I can't really kick you off the couch, but I can't I can't.

SPEAKER_03 42:22

This is not my couch, so I can't kick you off.

SPEAKER_07 42:25

I think we're okay with those one, two, three, four.

SPEAKER_03 42:27

We're gonna wow, that's crazy.

SPEAKER_07 42:29

I'm sorry, I like you too.

SPEAKER_03 42:35

Okay, how about this? I'm a Jason Taver fan. Not a Jason. I'm not I'm not a Boston fan, I'm a Jason Taveran. It's just a penny.

SPEAKER_02 42:50

The reason why it's kind of like big, it's because there's always this Boston and New York rivalry, whether it's baseball, basketball.

SPEAKER_03 42:57

I used to live in Boston. Oh, I didn't know that either. Okay, I'm not giving you that. Just a year.

SPEAKER_02 43:08

I don't know. No, that's the thing that's a year.

SPEAKER_04 43:13

That exists. The tea wasn't good. The tea wasn't good.

SPEAKER_06 43:19

So we're gonna shift over topics. We're gonna go to the yo, that's crazy segment. The first thing we got, lad, I'm gonna do take it up. We got Salanja's son. Let me get his name right because I didn't know the I didn't know the fault. It's Jules. Jules, I think. Yeah, it is Jules. Jules. Jules. I don't know who I do not know who family is, Brittany just told me who she was. Yeah, I'm not I'm not originally from love of hip hop. Let's see if you're not gonna be able to leave what you want to see with One and a lot of PDA being shown. So the Lila. Is there such a thing as too much of an age gap?

SPEAKER_07 44:06

She was straddled in, by the way. That was the one.

SPEAKER_02 44:08

Yeah, no, I saw that. I wasn't gonna read it, but I saw what it said. I I think there is a roll. I really think there is. Like personally, for me, I I wouldn't go ten years or more.

SPEAKER_08 44:20

Oh, so you're the younger person in this in this situation.

SPEAKER_02 44:24

Yeah, if I was the youngest, I wouldn't go ten years like older. Ten years might like, yeah, like that's it.

SPEAKER_08 44:30

And what do you think is the same as like going down? You shouldn't go down more than 10 years?

SPEAKER_02 44:33

Um, honestly, I'm not even going two years younger. Me as a woman.

SPEAKER_03 44:37

Wait. As as in you're not dating anyone else.

SPEAKER_02 44:40

I'm not dating a man two years younger than you. Probably not. No, or actually two years is the cut. Like Okay, that's it. Okay.

SPEAKER_08 44:48

I do have a question on that though. So what if now you're not the age you are now, but let's say you're 40 and he's 38. Does that change the exception?

SPEAKER_02 44:57

Um I'm not sure I'm not there yet. Honest. That's honest. Yeah, I'm not sure I'm not there yet. I I will say, like, I do like to date older. I wouldn't necessarily go younger, but I mean, I don't know what it's looking like. I mean, I feel like a man's mentality could be a little bit better at 38 than what I'm 29 right now at 27, but like you said, I mean, sometimes it's all over the place too.

SPEAKER_06 45:22

Yeah, age is not equate to maturity. It does not. But uh what about you, Jordan? How do you how do you feel about that?

SPEAKER_08 45:28

Be honest with you, that is strange. 41 and 21? That age got 20 years. Like when you're 21, you really don't know shit. Like because you like first of all, you most of the time not even out of college yet. And if you are out of college, like you're just now starting to realize what real life is when you get out there in the world. So the fact that you can be 41 and you're supposed to be like when you're 41, you're probably supposed to be mentoring someone that's 21.

SPEAKER_07 46:00

Call it what it is, bro.

SPEAKER_08 46:01

You know, it it is a PDI. Grooming. Yeah, grooming for sure. And I just don't agree with it because if this was a man, it wouldn't be celebrated the same way, like how they celebrating it for you know it being a woman.

SPEAKER_00 46:15

Thank you. Drea. Yeah, Jalen Green. Oh yeah. So Jalen's um so I wouldn't.

SPEAKER_06 46:24

So Drea is dating. I think it's I don't think she's 40 yet though. She's like 39.

SPEAKER_03 46:28

I think she's on the I think she's close to the colour. Yeah, she's real.

SPEAKER_06 46:31

But Jalen Jalen Green is like, I think her son is literally like the teenage.

SPEAKER_02 46:34

Yeah. Literally. Um so I do think that um Jules came out and said that this wasn't um like he was like he's single after this. Like uh after like a day after something. He came out with a post saying that he was single, and then she put up something too, like, oh that was fun. Like it was something along those lines. Which I mean, it's um so I think that was them addressing like this ain't this is the thing that it is. Which is fine.

SPEAKER_06 47:00

Like, I uh so I don't think there's nothing wrong with consensual sex amongst adults. But me personally, as a 40-year-old, I it pretty much guarantee I won't be going after a 21-year-old woman. You know what I'm saying? But in this situation, uh we don't I don't know this girl's uh I don't know her history who she's got she's recently divorced. Maybe she's trying to no she's just gonna know, you know, bro. She's on baddies, bro. I don't watch that. So even the girls, but what do you think?

SPEAKER_07 47:32

She was on Love and Hip Hop at Leonardo. Oh, where? Cardi was on there.

SPEAKER_06 47:35

I mean, I know that. I should tell you. Yo, shout out to Cardi Brian if you're on the bus like that. You know, but I think that as a I think we've all been in a situation where I was in my 20s and I see a girl that's known as a cool girl. Oh, she's attractive. And I I'll take it down, which is okay. Like, but like for his for him, I think it's one of those, like he might have thought she was whatever, and they had a good time, and that's it.

SPEAKER_08 47:58

But that's the thing, it's not a problem going up. It's not a problem going up, it's the going down, it's the going down. Because what's your mindset? Like, what do you what are you getting from someone that's that age when you're when you are the age you are? I mean, like, because you can have fun with anybody to be honest. Some young Timothy.

SPEAKER_02 48:17

Yeah, like for him, it's for him it's like a flex. Like, I got what I'm out, like, you know.

SPEAKER_03 48:22

For her, it's more of like salon, the catcher in that elevator for real, for real.

SPEAKER_06 48:25

We saw she couldn't hold no purchase. That was terrible.

SPEAKER_03 48:32

But no, I feel like shout outs to the baddies, because they really it was just that party B concert. Shout out to the Nah, shout outs to the baddies. Um, Tommy Lee is not a fan favorite of mine. Like, I'm not impressed by her, yeah. She's also not a fan favorite of mine.

SPEAKER_04 48:49

Yeah, like if you watch this stuff, you'll know why we said that.

SPEAKER_08 48:56

I enjoy the little baddies from time to time. You pay the Zeus? Huh? You pay for Zeus? Look, look, it's not my Zeus account, but we got the number.

SPEAKER_02 49:15

That's what I said. It's not his account.

SPEAKER_03 49:22

Jalen is so lost. It's gonna get out of it's gonna get up.

SPEAKER_04 49:27

I know that's so that it's gonna get not clapping like all the people.

SPEAKER_02 49:31

It's on Tubi, too.

SPEAKER_03 49:32

Is it?

SPEAKER_02 49:33

I heard that baddies is on Tubi. To be free. Oh, yeah. That's what I heard.

SPEAKER_03 49:38

That's what I heard. I don't know. But I just think it's crazy. I do believe I agree with what everyone said. Like, if it was a man dating down, that was you getting called the R. Kelly's, the heat, everything, right? Did not say that name. Oh, sorry. I'm crying. I'm sorry. We don't want to get canceled. Okay, okay. No, but I think I'm sorry, guys. But you are getting called like these names or whatever. And then when a woman comes and does it, it's like, oh, she's a cougar. She's but I think because it's Tommy doing it, it's cringe. Like it's like, yeah. And then it's like, I'm not a B Hop fan. However, they that family They was killing, huh?

SPEAKER_06 50:20

Huh? The B Hop is going crazy.

SPEAKER_03 50:22

No, I'm saying, like, I feel like that family, they put themselves in like a castle where it's like we can't be touched. Like, so for him to be messing with Tommy, like makes the family look crazy. Like, you get what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_06 50:34

That's actually a good part, like, because that family doesn't have much in the uh aside from the the the the salon elevator incident. I mean, recently with the Epstein Files, Jay Z's name was mentioned, but aside from that, you know, their family has kind of true. But that was kind of he kind of did the Usher version of that. We hit the 4-4 album and it was like he put it all on the album, the music, so it kind of was like the the rollout to like what Jordan was saying before with him was kind of it was kind of orchestrated to where it kind of felt a little empathetic towards me. He did get the empathy, you know what I'm saying? But this is a little bit Song Crow, that's a great song. That is a great song. Now, speaking of empathy, who's someone who wants empathy, but it's not getting it from the public. We're gonna switch over Erica Kirk. So he did a skit. We love it. We love it, goddammit. This is a good skit. I think this is better than the pastor one, low key, when you did the church. When he was up in the churches, yeah. So it was green. Yeah, so I love it. Never said Erica's name, but in the parody, if you know, you know. And that's the good thing about comedy. And she ain't like that. She ain't like it very much. I don't know. She sent over a ceased and assist to Juicey, and Juicey clap back like, yo, we had a legal team. We know we allowed to do this. Your name wasn't said, I ain't taking shit down, and his numbers just went up after that.

SPEAKER_07 51:56

Oh, he got like one million on every post, like on every social media. Like, so like TikTok, Instagram, Twitter, Facebook.

SPEAKER_06 52:04

He's not paying for bots either. Like my boy won't legit one it up. So my question to you guys on the panel is How do you feel about comedy? And uh do you think Erica Kirk is right for what she did?

SPEAKER_02 52:17

What do you mean in that? Sending over deceased and assists. Oh.

SPEAKER_06 52:20

Um like Drake did.

SPEAKER_02 52:23

That's it. No, I think it's not the same thing. I mean, okay. I just I just feel like comedy is comedy. Right. Like sometimes you gotta take it out. You gotta be made fun of a little bit.

SPEAKER_03 52:35

You gonna sit in the front row of the comedy show? You gonna sit in the front round according.

SPEAKER_06 52:42

Um I think I'm kind of with her with Delilah too. Like, I think yo, but I think it's this is an underrated skill for I think most people in life. Because I can't stand an asshole. You have to be able to laugh at yourself. I think that's such an under underrated tool that most people just cannot do. They get butthurt and this, this, and that. Like, I can't, like, you have to be able to laugh at yourself. Like, it's okay. Like, we like we all that make fun of each other, yeah. Like, our whoop chat, we both do all like you have to be able to laugh at yourself. Right. So I think that I think the recent events that she went through with the passing of her husband was terrible, a scene on camera, that that's all terrible, you know. So we're not gonna touch on that. But what I would say is that you have to be able to laugh at yourself because at the end of the day, if you would have gone about this and got in the comments and said whatever, she would have got, especially the black people, we said, oh, right. We might be able to change a little bit about two on by how we feel about you, you know. So majority might not, but we might be, oh, you know what? I she could at least laugh at herself. Right. Like even Trump could laugh at himself from time to time. We might not agree with the dude, but at least from time to time, oh, you know what I'm saying? So I think that she tries to play this religious and conservative role too much, and I think people, especially if people never decided you're on right or the left, they kind of all start on the call out on it, like, yo, bro, you don't seem you think you just want the money, bro. Like, you don't seem like you really care about these events that your husband was really talking about, whatever the case may be. But not to get too political, but I will say, bro, you come off as a sore loser. Like, that's just it, that's it. You come up as a sore loser. Like, there's nothing wrong with laughing at yourself and saying, yo, this was funny.

SPEAKER_01 54:20

Yeah, no, for sure.

SPEAKER_07 54:23

Oh, she yeah, I mean Drewski, that that was hilarious. That was definitely hilarious. I I honestly I was cracking up for like a good five minutes, right? Um but I think I like it. I like the comedy of it. I like that Drewski's taking these little shots here and there. And um this is not not the first shot that Drewski's done. He he he treads on the line. Like he's on this is the line, and this is Drewski. Like he does not care. Um and I think we we need that as a like a nation or whatever, right? Because like the way people take comedy now, they take they're offended and they want to cancel everybody. Yeah, they're corny corny.

SPEAKER_06 54:59

That's the irony of this because she's known to call uh uh at times the minority so sensitive, but then someone makes a joke. This is clearly a joke, yeah. And you're taking so like a defamation of characters and that like it's a joke, but like it's clearly a joke. What about you, brother?

SPEAKER_03 55:13

I agree, like I feel like we just need to bring real good comedy back, like we need laughs, there's too much going on. Uh-uh. Juice is funny to me. Like is he though?

SPEAKER_06 55:23

You don't think Juice is funny? So not to shit on Juicey. I think Juice, I feel like so far, he's always he's put himself like in this kind of box. I don't want to say box, maybe that's where he just feels like he's at. Like, I felt like what Kevin Hart said to him on that on Kai's show was like, yo, bro, you should be doing more. Yeah, like I feel like I I hate that this within what Juice's been around for what, like I want to say three to four years, like of like popping. I hate how he's only doing this. Like, I feel like he should have his own show or something. But I I would I mean I would hope so because this is a good one. Yeah, he has a dating show. Like, no, no, no, no. I mean like a forefront like show where it's like it wouldn't be as funny. But that's what I'm saying. He puts himself in his box because he does like this offset parody where it's not him like telling actual jokes.

SPEAKER_08 56:11

But it might not be like a box that he's putting himself in, too, because you gotta really think about like who's funding this kind of stuff. And some of the topics that he actually goes after might not be the funding that national topics. No, no, no.

SPEAKER_06 56:23

So what I'm saying is I'll I'll be cool if he was still doing this and something else, like and pertains to like have his own show, like a national show, this and that. Because he has he's he he has more potential than just being known for his skits. That's like my only point. Like, I feel like he could be doing so much more.

SPEAKER_02 56:38

I feel like I think people may not want to give him that chance because of the type of comedy he's putting out.

SPEAKER_03 56:42

That's what I said I feel like he'd be limited. Once you go into like, you know, other things, like you're limited, they try to tell you how to make your joke so.

SPEAKER_08 57:44

You get to pass the line that like like Ant said, you get to pass the line when it comes to comedy. And some people just like they still find it hard to grasp that situation. Like we've seen stuff like Eddie Murphy on his stage, uh, Dave Chappelle, Martin Lawrence. Like we've seen even the scary movies, we've seen these lines get bad get crossed, and the reason why they're able to cross is because it's comedy, it's not meant to be like absolute or like something that's like yeah, we're specifically attacking these people or this person. It's just meant to be funny to galvanize everybody together for life. So I don't find nothing wrong with this.

SPEAKER_06 58:21

I actually thought it was my biggest takeaway from it was I did find it. But I I think I'm at a point where you I wish we went from him in a different in a different setting. I'm cool with you guys, I'm cool with that, but also like that. Yeah, like I feel like I mean I'm not saying he's not. He he is successful because I think when it comes down to I think we and we like people like he has a guy, he has a large framebase that's gonna support him. Like he's getting he's he's not got he's on box, he's getting these views, like he's people are like watching, retweeting, air engaging with the videos, you know what I'm saying? So I I just do wish or I hope that in the future it does build up to something more to where I've seen him on TV and doing these other things that I know he's capable of doing because he is uh he's really talented at telling jokes. He has a gift to make people laugh. He laugh at himself. Like he's cool, like he's the opposite of her, like he's cool if you make a joke of laughing at himself, which I think is important to have. Now, speaking of career.

SPEAKER_08 59:16

I was gonna say, so you you feel like the window is open for him and you don't want to be able to do it.

SPEAKER_06 59:20

Yeah, exactly. Okay, exactly. So we're gonna switch over to our relationship segment. We're gonna do a start with us two experienced females on the panel. Experienced panel experience now. So speaking of careers and having these type of careers, my question to you is I did see this on social media. Do you think that they're all careers are a red flag that you can't take people who have certain careers? Brittany, I'll start with you.

SPEAKER_00 59:47

Um teachers.

SPEAKER_06 59:52

That's why you say that.

SPEAKER_03 59:53

Teachers be walling. Like, you know how like we back in the past.

SPEAKER_06 59:57

Like you know you got some toxic parents that are teachers, like you know they you know they message. I used to be a teacher. Oh shit.

SPEAKER_08 1:00:03

She said, but I'm not self-reflecting, though. I'm talking about them not me. We're talking about them, not me.

SPEAKER_06 1:00:08

I am the exception, not the rule.

SPEAKER_03 1:00:10

We're not talking about me. However, um Yeah, teachers be walling. Like, you know how I feel like the reason why I say teachers is because when we were in school, like I felt like we didn't know what our teachers were doing outside of the classroom. Now it's like, yo, my teacher in a party, my teacher on this dating app, my teacher on TikTok, my teacher, social media exposes everyone. Like, and so it's like I know teachers who page don't even be private no more. They be like, they be out there, and then they don't care. The thing that kills me is the kids be commenting. Like, Mrs. I know a couple of people, like teachers, like oh, Mr. Such and such, or Mrs. Such and such. I see you on my TikTok. Like, that's crazy to me. As a teacher, I feel like you never want your students to find you anywhere. Like, you gotta move.

SPEAKER_06 1:01:05

And some teachers be embracing, they be like in class from seven to three. Yeah, like ball by six, ball by nine.

SPEAKER_07 1:01:12

I ain't gonna lie, Mrs. Wilson. Back then, seventh grade. Wait, no, what's seven? Eighth grade. Mrs. Wilson. The point is, she's related to Russell Wilson. Oh wow, wow. It was destiny.

SPEAKER_08 1:01:33

He is destiny. That's what I know what you mean though, because like Britt was like, you don't know what your teacher, yo, we knew what our teachers was doing back in the day. We was in high school, we knew which teachers was linking up with each other after work because we saw the signs, we saw everything. So then once we graduated and then they started having kids with each other, we're like, we already knew y'all was getting.

SPEAKER_03 1:01:55

That is true. I feel like when we during our time, it was like teachers were married to each other and they was like trying to keep it under wrap. Now it was like, yo, my teacher was at this party last night with my older brother. Like, what? Why is your teaching? Like the error is different.

SPEAKER_06 1:02:08

Yeah, it's it's different. All right, Delilas. That age gap thing. Delilas, be honest. What's a red flag career that you cannot associate with? Be honest.

SPEAKER_02 1:02:18

I can't. I'm not gonna say I won't dip and dabble. I'll I will never say I won't do it. But major red flag is law enforcement.

SPEAKER_00 1:02:28

Ooh.

SPEAKER_02 1:02:34

I feel like law enforcement. I mean, and I'm gonna say this. There's gonna be a lot of girls that's gonna agree with this. Like, it is uh we don't know that. We don't know nothing. Oh, I I know that. Not for sure.

SPEAKER_06 1:02:46

Like maybe it's not her friend, she's talking about her friend's circle.

SPEAKER_02 1:02:50

I'm not talking about my friends' circle. That's a good thing. I'm just saying, um, yeah, I would say law enforcement is a red flag career. I mean, don't see that nigga indulge.

SPEAKER_06 1:03:03

You don't want to sit there.

SPEAKER_08 1:03:04

That's what I'm saying. Give us some insight. Wow. Oh wow.

SPEAKER_02 1:03:08

Um I don't know. I've just seen so many cases where like girls date cops or they date COs, or it could even be military. They're getting cheated on all the time.

SPEAKER_06 1:03:17

It can't just be that those men just cheat, it has to be the title.

SPEAKER_02 1:03:20

I mean, that's it. I'm just paying devil's advocate.

SPEAKER_06 1:03:22

I don't know what I'm just podding as they say.

SPEAKER_08 1:03:24

I mean, it's okay. They throwing the case for the women, so you can throw in the case for the men.

SPEAKER_02 1:03:27

No, no, no, but I'm saying, like, it just seemed like a lot of women who are dating men in law enforcement are getting late.

SPEAKER_08 1:03:35

But what about the women in law enforcement?

SPEAKER_02 1:03:37

Oh, yeah. I never said that. We're talking about careers that are red flags. I never said it's just men.

SPEAKER_08 1:03:43

Oh, that's true. That's fair. You got it, clock it.

unknown 1:03:46

Okay.

SPEAKER_04 1:03:48

Yo.

SPEAKER_06 1:03:53

Jordan, what about you? But what do you think? Because I touched on everybody else's answer. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_08 1:03:58

I mean, with the knowledge that I have on this subject. I know. When you know, you know.

SPEAKER_03 1:04:15

But I'm gonna say we need to go to the teacher edition parties together.

SPEAKER_08 1:04:19

But what I'm gonna say though is that the nurses probably got that on lock. Red flag, red flag, red flag. I heard about the nurses uh that's a good idea. I got you. You know, I gotta make sure I'm comfortable. All right, nah, but yeah, so the nurses, you know, we we hear the stories about how they be getting it in with the with the doctors and stuff inside the little supply closets. You know, I dunno I didn't even caught a couple nurses. With my profession, I have also walked in on nurses in a closet. But we ain't but we ain't gonna talk about. Okay. But yeah, you know, I I feel like nurses um, they get it in.

SPEAKER_02 1:05:03

I think that people in the medical field do get because everybody just be in the same building, around each other all the time, it could happen. And it don't necessarily have to be a nurse, it could be even somebody who does front desk could be messing with a tech, or I don't know, a nurse is messing with a doctor.

SPEAKER_08 1:05:20

You know, so they just freaky freaky in that.

SPEAKER_02 1:05:22

No, I feel like the hospitals gotta rep too, guys. I have to say it. They do gotta rep.

unknown 1:05:27

The hospitals gotta rep.

SPEAKER_07 1:05:28

I mean, but like what you're using your your explanation or like reason why, right? Don't uh doesn't everybody go back to the same building every day. That is true. That's true. Very true. So they don't get a pass.

unknown 1:05:40

I don't know.

SPEAKER_02 1:05:41

This is just what I be hearing through the grapevine, guys.

SPEAKER_06 1:05:45

She tried to put on that cape again for the medical bill. I don't know. I think you gotta check your service in your grapevine. I don't know.

SPEAKER_03 1:05:53

I think another one. Oh, wait, go ahead.

SPEAKER_06 1:05:54

No, I mean I was gonna say I think the only real rep flat for me would be like the stripper. Like, if I'm being honest, like. Only? I'm gonna be honest with you.

SPEAKER_08 1:06:02

It's a stripper a red flag.

SPEAKER_02 1:06:06

Come on. A stripper not being a are you serious?

SPEAKER_01 1:06:12

What you mean? Hold on, hold on, hold on.

SPEAKER_08 1:06:15

Hold on, hold on. I'm so convinced. So because she's taking her clothes off for money, that doesn't necessarily mean that she's sleeping with people. She's just taking her clothes off for money. Wait, so you could tell you.

SPEAKER_02 1:06:28

Would you date a stripper, Jordan?

SPEAKER_08 1:06:30

I don't know. If I would date a stripper. I don't know. I wouldn't write off a stripper just because she's a stripper. I wouldn't write off a stripper just because she's a stripper. So you're saying if Cardi B walked up to you right now, you'd be like, nah, Cardi.

SPEAKER_07 1:06:45

I'm not sure. Exactly. Exactly.

SPEAKER_08 1:06:47

So you you would you would say no to Cardi? Yes. Okay, hold on, hold on, hold on.

SPEAKER_02 1:06:52

Technically, Cardi's not a stripper anymore.

SPEAKER_06 1:06:54

Not anymore, but the he's still talking about as if the issue was still stripper. That's how taking that's how he's asked.

SPEAKER_08 1:07:00

Okay, but no, I'm just saying like her past was a stripper. So you wouldn't date her because her past was a stripper?

SPEAKER_03 1:07:06

I just want to know. When you judge it, when you bring the stripper home and your mother adds, like where she break that, what you gonna say? What you mean? What you gonna say?

SPEAKER_02 1:07:16

What you gonna tell your mom?

SPEAKER_03 1:07:17

I'm gonna tell her what she does.

SPEAKER_08 1:07:21

What you mean? I told you. I've been the one on the pod that said I stand on my decisions or stand on your business. If I choose to date a stripper, I'm gonna tell my mama she's a stripper. Just like as if I'm gonna tell her she worked in the mail office.

SPEAKER_07 1:07:38

I'm in love with a stripper.

SPEAKER_02 1:07:41

Don't you first of all don't disappoint her like that. Don't do that.

SPEAKER_06 1:07:45

Don't do that.

SPEAKER_02 1:07:46

Do not do that.

SPEAKER_06 1:07:48

There's so much impact that we have to have the time.

SPEAKER_08 1:07:51

All I'm saying is my mother would not.

SPEAKER_07 1:07:53

I know Mama Jordan wouldn't like that.

SPEAKER_08 1:07:55

What I'm saying to you is my mother, she she trusts my decision making. So she knows that if I choose if I choose a woman that I want to deal with, she knows that that person is good.

SPEAKER_02 1:08:06

Is your mom up?

SPEAKER_07 1:08:19

Hold on, call your mom. Call your mom. He's FaceTiming his mom right now.

SPEAKER_03 1:08:24

Just call her.

unknown 1:08:25

See what she picked up.

SPEAKER_00 1:08:28

That is hilarious.

SPEAKER_07 1:08:30

Stick with us. Stay with us. Stay with us.

SPEAKER_08 1:08:33

Hello? I'm sorry if I woke you up. Wait, I got I got you on a speakerphone right now. You are on the pod, just to let you know. I have to ask you a question. If I came home with a girl who was a shooter, right? And I told you her professional wasn't a shooter, would you would you feel a type of way about that? I would just be looking. But would you trust my decision making?

SPEAKER_00 1:09:27

Um well depending on where you brought her home from.

SPEAKER_08 1:09:38

But like when I brought her home to you, she didn't have all like her clothes from the club. Like she was dressed normal. Like let's say she was dressed in her Sunday's best when we came over for dinner.

SPEAKER_00 1:09:52

I mean, I probably accept it, but it'd be in my head. I'll be thinking about it all the time.

SPEAKER_08 1:09:58

Thank you. That's what I tried to tell them. They ain't believe me, but thank you. Thank you. You have a good night.

SPEAKER_09 1:10:05

Yo good night, mama.

SPEAKER_08 1:10:10

Told you. Nah. You trust my decision making. That's all you gotta do. Well, I don't have words.

SPEAKER_02 1:10:16

Well, first of all, I'm gonna start. Hold on, but just to let y'all know.

SPEAKER_08 1:10:20

Like, I am not dating a stripper. I'm not trying to date a stripper. And to all like to all of y'all out there, like a stripper is not who I am dating, okay? Just so y'all know.

SPEAKER_05 1:10:32

Okay. Okay. All right.

SPEAKER_03 1:10:36

We gotta make it clear. Oh my god. This episode is gonna be one. Yo, right.

SPEAKER_06 1:10:47

The last topic we got here, I'm gonna start with you, Delilah. When we talk about situationships, we all we we've all been there, guys. So my question is, are situationship just a fair of commitment?

SPEAKER_02 1:11:02

Um, okay, so I have two ways to answer this. I do think that yes, it is. But I will say I haven't been in a situation ship that didn't turn into a relationship. The two that I went in ended up becoming relationships. So I don't know everybody else's experience, but eventually they wasn't I'll be honest, I've never been in a situation that turned into a relationship.

SPEAKER_06 1:11:31

You are the exception, not the woman.

SPEAKER_03 1:11:35

Like I've never been in a situation honestly, it became like either we just fell off, or it was just like, okay, I see that, but we're not going nowhere. So it's just like we got comfortable being in that place. Um, and it was just like I have a father. That time treat me right now. No, but it was we got comfortable in that place, and then it became like you know what, whatever, like I'm 19, now what about this relationship type thing? But as I got older, you know, I'm always talking about maturity with age, so as I got older, it came like old Okay.

SPEAKER_02 1:12:24

That's what I think is you you guys are at some point you're fucking once you guys are having sex, there's no title. And you guys are hanging out.

SPEAKER_06 1:12:31

Yeah, say hey, hanging out, you guys are occasionally going on dates. You guys are there's no there's just no title.

SPEAKER_03 1:12:36

Yeah, oh yeah, okay. So your situationship's turned into all right, you're my girlfriend.

SPEAKER_02 1:12:41

Yes.

SPEAKER_06 1:12:42

That's not even a situation. You guys are just still dating. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 1:12:44

Yeah, so technically it wasn't necessarily. Like, I mean how long to how long was y'all in that situation ship before the year and a half. Yeah. Oh no, yeah, that's a situation. For one of them, a year and a half. Okay, so yeah, yeah. I mean, I feel like none of my situationships became that because I think we both went into well, I wouldn't say we both, but we went into it on like it's a situation ship. Like, this is what we're doing. Um You guys agree to be friends with benefits each other. Yeah, yeah, basically. That's how it usually starts off. And then it starts off someone likes each other. That's why I disagree with the whole friendship with benefits thing, because it's like someone's gonna end up at each other.

SPEAKER_06 1:13:24

So I always say sex always comes in. So there's no way. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 1:13:30

Um, I think when you when you do the situationship thing, you get comfortable because it's like we've been doing this. Oh, now you're taking me on dates, now you're doing this. So it's like I feel like I'm in a relationship. Oh, wait, hold up, you never act like okay, let's do we want here, like what are we doing? And I have a lot of things. What's Dad's name? Oh, James.

SPEAKER_02 1:13:53

Shout out to James and Johnny Big James, yeah. Big Johnny.

SPEAKER_06 1:14:10

I ain't scared. I guess it is.

SPEAKER_07 1:14:12

Clearly, you date the stripper. I mean, two things could be true, right? I mean it's in my in my in my experience, the situationship was made because we both wanted the partner. Yeah, the person there, the friends will benefit, obviously. But not like nobody wants to be in the relationship, right?

SPEAKER_06 1:14:36

You ain't trying to get somebody somebody else. I'll say this. I'll say this. I think situationships are I think bound to happen as you become older. When I say older, once you get to like 21 and you start realizing you want to be intimate with people and you explore however you feel, you know, you this is what kind of tends to happen. And I think that well, one thing I hate about situationships is that men and women often say this the old teen thing that they say, oh, if they wanted to, they would. Which I think is I don't like that at all. For the reason you made that face, you I guess you love that answer. No, no, no, no, no. No, no, I have my thoughts on that. But I hate it because when somebody said, Oh, if you want to, you would I simply say, Oh, well, if you want to get over him, you would. Like that's two separate things. So when you talk about situationship and how they form, I think oftentimes people say it's not that difficult. I think at times it can be. I do believe sometimes you can have the right person all the time. I do think that's actually a thing. I do think that some people are kind of in that type of situation, whether it's financially, which is the biggest reason why motivation making extra money or it may be a situation where, yo, I'm trying to get my career on track. Yo, I got love for you, but yo, I'm locked in like I'm locking on a podcast. And whatever I'm trying to do, I could be locked in on this, where it's like, yo, I can't focus on what I want to do because I'm like, I see so much attention in myself, what I want to accomplish where I can get tracked in that now. You become the option, oh, you don't pay. You know what I'm saying? I think you're I think once you start having sex with somebody, everything changes. Regardless of what someone wants to say, everything changes on what you're interested in. And I think oftentimes I can only speak of myself, but at times I can be walking with somebody and sleeping with them. But yo, I like this restaurant, come with me. Like, you know what I'm saying? I think that happens too.

SPEAKER_03 1:16:18

And I think I mean you can say no. I look, I I like that leads the girl on.

unknown 1:16:24

Exactly.

SPEAKER_06 1:16:24

I don't want to say it does when it doesn't, because I'm also I can be okay with you, you can also say no. Like, I'm not if you that's a toxic answer. It's not. You can meet because I got necessarily think that's toxic. Oh no.

SPEAKER_07 1:16:39

That that answer shocked the shit out of me. I ain't gonna lie. I am not expecting to say that. I feel like But you know what situation y'all in. So if that's like say what whatever girl you're dealing with, right? You're like, okay, we're friends with benefits. Yes, friends with benefits.

SPEAKER_06 1:16:55

Why are you going out on dates? Well, that part, but I'm not even saying friends with benefits. Like I could not sleep with you. Like, okay, if I'm if I have uh just a crush, I like this person, right? And I say, Oh, let's go, yo, I'm less are you down to go with uh let's say Veronica's a nice restaurant, right? We go there, whatever, we hit it off, whatever, we start messing around, whatever. But then I could be like, yo, my job, I'm working, I've been off in like 10 days. Where are you gonna spend time with me? And if it becomes now, it's like okay. Because you created a vibe. Right, right. That's what I'm saying. So I could create this, but I could also be not in a headspace, but yo, I'm back, you won't be a priority.

SPEAKER_08 1:17:30

So that you're where you messed up is you didn't take her to mama wana, which where you should have taken her.

SPEAKER_07 1:17:38

I just with that response, it's just like it took one date for you now to be busy. Nah, I could already be busy though. So you shouldn't have gone on a date. Because I want to go out somewhere to eat. Why you gotta invite her? Oh, it's supposed to know that means go out with your other girlfriends that you have. You have other friends that are just girls.

SPEAKER_03 1:17:56

Come out with the pie. Come out with the invite me and break. Y'all pie. Corby is not paying for your drinks.

SPEAKER_06 1:18:05

So I could it's impossible to sit there and say that you cannot be attracted to somebody and say, Oh, yo, let's go out or whatever.

SPEAKER_03 1:18:14

I feel like what you're saying is you're creating a vibe. So I'm gonna get at you. You're creating a vibe, right? And once you got that vibe, a female is gonna look at you and to tell you that vibe. Granted, she could say no, but you already said you got a little feelings or a crush or whatever, right? So it's like maybe the female feeling the same way. She like, oh, he asked me out to go. It could be like, oh, we're gonna get drinked. To her and the female, that's a date. True, I'm not saying you pay.

SPEAKER_08 1:18:47

That's the thing. She looked she like, if she pays for herself, you good. You good, dude.

SPEAKER_02 1:18:52

Do you have a lot of girl like that?

SPEAKER_03 1:18:53

If I play with a guy and I'm going half.

SPEAKER_05 1:18:55

If I ask a girl, I'll be definitely paid.

SPEAKER_03 1:18:57

Okay, so you paid, right? That girl come home like, girl, let me tell you. He opened the car door, he did the whole thing.

SPEAKER_02 1:19:06

He paid.

SPEAKER_03 1:19:07

And then next week, you're like, I'm sorry, I've been busy all week. I'll talk to you next week.

SPEAKER_08 1:19:11

Excuse me? Wait, so so so you're saying that he can't be a gentleman and open her door and pay for the because he invited her out.

SPEAKER_03 1:19:18

We're saying it's a vibe that you create from the beginning. One vibe don't mean like nothing crazy. I can't look at you the same. You would bring a stripper home to your mother. I ain't gonna lie, look.

SPEAKER_08 1:19:32

I cannot look at you the same. I am not saying that I'm gonna bring a stripper home to my mother, but I'm saying I'm saying that I would not write her off because she's a stripper.

SPEAKER_06 1:19:40

All right. So Delilah.

SPEAKER_08 1:19:41

And it's nothing against stripper. Because Bridget was getting over. Clearly it is. Um What was the question again for?

SPEAKER_06 1:19:50

Is situationship just a fear of commitment?

SPEAKER_08 1:19:54

Um, situationships, I guess it is just a fear of commitment. But at the same time, like at least the situation. The situationships that I feel like I've been, because you know it's it's all like perspective. The situationships that I've been in in my life is always like post-relationship.

SPEAKER_06 1:20:15

So like a rebound.

SPEAKER_08 1:20:17

Not not a rebound. I mean like the situation is with the girl that I was just in a relationship. Oh, so y'all like off a little type of shit. Yeah, yeah. But you know, after the end, and those are the situationships that I've been in. So I call it.

SPEAKER_02 1:20:31

I feel like that's that's not a situation ship. That's like y'all just can't let go. Yeah, y'all just can't let go.

SPEAKER_08 1:20:36

Yeah, definitely toxic. Yeah, better toxic. What's toxic about that? You would have wanted to say your ex could follow you on Instagram and talk to you and all the time.

SPEAKER_02 1:20:52

Um, actually, I can't save you. What do you think? Don't say that.

SPEAKER_06 1:20:59

I didn't answer the question. I'm gonna say this. Yeah, uh, I do not think situations should all fair commitment. I do think that sometimes you could be in a space where you're just not ready to commit. And then what happens?

SPEAKER_03 1:21:11

Which is just what you just said.

SPEAKER_06 1:21:12

It's like, yo, we you literally just said it in a different way. Yeah, I did. You know, I ain't ducking the smoke.

SPEAKER_03 1:21:18

I know what that's like if you're not ready to commit, you cannot actively have that.

unknown 1:21:23

What?

SPEAKER_07 1:21:24

But no, I think it's the communication thing. It's the communication.

SPEAKER_02 1:21:28

I don't agree with that. I don't know.

SPEAKER_07 1:21:31

You gotta communicate. I think we just gotta communicate it to the fact that this is what I want to do. Oh, yeah, no, he's not communicating at all.

SPEAKER_01 1:21:43

He's not the way what you're trying to go against me, game.

SPEAKER_03 1:21:52

The way it is, the way Jalen is describing it, right? He's saying that, oh, if we're like friends with benefits, right?

SPEAKER_06 1:21:59

I'm not even saying friends with benefits. What he's saying is, hold, let me break this down. Okay, got it.

SPEAKER_03 1:22:03

Are you saying situationship?

SPEAKER_06 1:22:05

Whatever, but because I'm not sure.

SPEAKER_08 1:22:10

You're not looking at it the same way he is.

SPEAKER_06 1:22:11

Well, I'm not gonna sit there and say, or text a girl at like 1 a.m. Yo, come over. That's those are like that's like a booty call, whatever. If I'm sitting there saying, yo, I'll like whatever, I'm not ready to commit right now. I can simply say, yo, we can go on dates, we can do this. And if you ever feel comfortable, which I said, yo, you don't gotta anybody put it in.

SPEAKER_03 1:22:26

You're gonna tell the girl that if you ever. But on what part do you at what date do you say that? The third date, the fourth date, the fifth date, what time?

SPEAKER_06 1:22:39

That I think that's that's subjective. I think that that every situation is different. I don't sit there and say, by the fifth date, I'ma sit here and say, I'm gonna send this text message.

SPEAKER_03 1:22:46

I just feel like once you even start a date or anything other outside of sex in a situation ship, it leads to feelings, it leads to a vibe created where that's my man, but that's not my man.

SPEAKER_08 1:23:00

Hold on though. That's a little crazy to me though. Because how you just like finding somebody to just be fucking and you never went on a date. That's crazy. That's that makes you look crazy as the female. You just like yo, I see him, I like him, and I'm just fucking, fucking, fucking, fucking, fucking, no dates. That's crazy.

SPEAKER_03 1:23:17

So what I'm saying is what I like, right? The little Chuck goes, yeah. What I'm saying is you have to, it goes back to what Yan said, the communication with it, right? Like, it are there are girls that are cool with all right, we're going out for drinks, but I know it ain't nothing more, like it's nothing less. We already had that conversation. The way you sound then is toxic, where it's just like, you know, I'm taking how on dates. If I want to grab food, like this is my main shorty that is going with me to grab the food. And if we constantly doing the same vibes, the same things, and then you said it may be a week or two where you busy.

SPEAKER_02 1:23:58

I have a question. Wait, before you speak, I have a question.

SPEAKER_04 1:24:02

Y'all got two questions.

SPEAKER_02 1:24:05

Okay. Oh, I'm sorry. These are questions for me. Oh, so my thing is like me or Piperdy? No, I'm talking to you. Oh. So what I'm saying is, like, okay, are you waiting for the girl to bring it up or are you gonna tell her?

SPEAKER_06 1:24:18

What do you mean?

SPEAKER_02 1:24:20

Like, I'm not gonna sit here and say, like, let's say you start talking to a girl and she doesn't bring it up because she's just going with the vibe. Are you just going with the vibe and you're not bringing it up?

SPEAKER_06 1:24:29

No, I think at some point you can't the elephant whom we'll have to be addressed because naturally, like Brittany's saying, if you would sleep with someone, there's gonna be an elevation of evolved till relationship or potential relationship. But are you bringing it up? Yeah, I'll bring it up. I have no problem with it.

SPEAKER_02 1:24:41

Like without her even hinting at it.

SPEAKER_06 1:24:43

Yeah, I have no problem with having uncomfortable conversations. You know what I do for a living? I got no problem with being uncomfortable.

SPEAKER_02 1:24:48

Okay, now he wanna hint at what he do for a living.

SPEAKER_03 1:24:53

Okay, now he wants to hint at it. He said I do it for a living, baby. Okay, so no, you was gonna answer, you was gonna explain in detail what I was saying. Because I feel like you were saying, like, we go out here and there, whatever, and then it may be some weeks I don't want to talk to you or I don't want to go out.

SPEAKER_06 1:25:09

A perfect way to break it down is say I'm talking to someone named Ashley, right? I meet Ashley whatever in person, hey Ashley, whatever X, Y, and Z. Yo, I think you cool, whatever. Let's go grab a drink or whatever. Okay. And she might sit there and say, Don't take me out unless you want XYZ. You don't want to be serious. I like that. Okay, let's let's go off of the fact that she's like that. Okay. I will respond. I'm gonna look for nothing serious, but I'm still down to go out. Now, if she still agrees to go out with me, because women, again, women would break the rules for it, who they want to break the rules for.

SPEAKER_07 1:25:37

Now, now, now you're okay.

SPEAKER_06 1:25:38

Because you communicate. Now, so now I communicate. I gave you the menu and sat down at the table. Yeah, now that makes sense. Now, if you sit down at the table, do not complain to the chef that you don't like their ingredients.

SPEAKER_08 1:25:47

Because if I told you, if I don't like my meal, I'm gonna still speak on it.

SPEAKER_06 1:25:52

I feel so wait, hold on, let me finish. Let me let me unpack. Okay, go ahead. If I still do that and say, oh, we can vibe about whatever the case may be, okay, cool, we'll consent to adults. I don't put the time, like I said before, I don't have this ticking clock of, yo, I gotta do this, I gotta do that. Like I already got my kid out. Like, if I'm if I'm walking to re evolve to a marriage or something, that's great. We may or may not get there. I don't know the future. So what I would say is like I'm not gonna rush into nothing. And that's what I tell like most girls, not most every girl I've dealt with, I would say the first thing I would say is I'm not rushing into anything. And now that could lead to a situation ship because you're like, okay, yeah, now I'm in limbo because I like this guy, I'm sleeping with only this guy, but we got great chemistry, X, Y, and D. But we I don't have the title, what's wrong with me. Which is at times, but men and women say this. Now it's not it's not just a man thing, I mean the man to woman, because guys say the same thing too.

SPEAKER_05 1:26:43

You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_02 1:26:43

Well, that's exactly how situations are. Yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_03 1:26:47

And it becomes toxic by the way you're explaining. I mean, you I don't think it becomes toxic because I'm gonna say it's a good thing. But it takes two people though.

SPEAKER_02 1:26:54

I don't think in a relationship from a situation.

SPEAKER_03 1:26:57

So maybe it could it could be it could be, but then you have some females that are like, okay, yeah, I said like I'm down for like just chilling and revibe and stuff, but then you have a point where it's like, hey, we've been doing this for a minute. Uh like y'all have that conversation of feelings. You can leave the table. So you would never catch feelings?

SPEAKER_06 1:27:16

Like No, I'm not saying see, I'm not, you can't have sex without catching feelings. That's not what I'm saying. But you're saying, like, if she tried to force you or something like that, what did I say two episodes ago in the pod, Brittany? I don't like no ultimatum. Don't give me an ultimatum because the answer's gonna be no. Like, I pay my own bills. I'm too growth for ultimatum. I pay my own bills, I got nothing going on in my mind.

SPEAKER_03 1:27:33

I hear you, I hear you. I just feel like when you're you're not wrong for what you're saying, right? But I feel like when you're doing these type of situationships, know what females you're dealing with. I mean that's two things can be true. Like, I'm not sure.

SPEAKER_08 1:27:45

But Britt, I think you're missing the point of like, like what you're saying is a hundred percent true. But you're you're making it seem as if Jalen is the only one whose feelings is involved in this. No, no, no, no, no, no. And the reason why I say that, right, is because as the female, If you're the one who's feeling these things and he's not giving you that energy, you're the one who's keeping yourself in that situation because you have the right to leave. That is so you can't really blame Jalen or say he's the one being toxic because she would be the one being toxic because she's allowing herself and subjecting herself to that situation even after she knows his intentions.

SPEAKER_03 1:28:20

I agree. I have to, you know, say something.

SPEAKER_06 1:28:22

You and every topic.

SPEAKER_03 1:28:24

I think however.

SPEAKER_02 1:28:27

But also, I also think that Jalen can be mature enough to know that it will need to be.

SPEAKER_03 1:28:33

Thank you. I think he's hopeless and like not looking at it that it will be. No, I'm sorry. As it I because he's saying it as in like, it is what it is. Like, because he has this thing of I don't date with intimate.

SPEAKER_06 1:28:48

I'm not saying it is with it. What I'm saying is that as adult, if you if I sit here and date, let's say Ashley. Oh, that's Ashley. Right. And I sit there and realize Ashley has these traits that are quote unquote red flag. But I still deal with her. Is Ashley really the problem or am I the problem? Because if I sit there and tell you what it is, it could I I don't know the future, but if I'm feeling you whatever the case is, and then you may feel like okay, we we're lingering, this is wasting time. Alright, you could if you feel like we're not moving at the pace you want, you could ever move yourself. I'm not saying that if your failings are really matriculate, of course, because we were intimate with each other. I'm not saying that's not gonna happen. What I'm saying is I don't necessarily think every situation ship is just a fair commitment. I think what I'm trying to say is that it could simply be, yo, I got a lot of shit on my fucking plate. You talked about you chilling. Yeah, I don't want to say chilling, but I think I get it. You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_08 1:29:40

Like, and what he's saying is this is this is not prison.

SPEAKER_04 1:29:43

You're not trapped in the channel.

SPEAKER_08 1:29:44

It ain't a death sentence.

SPEAKER_02 1:29:47

But I also get what she's trying to say. Like, you should be emotionally intelligent enough to know that if you have too much on your plate, then maybe you shouldn't be dating.

SPEAKER_06 1:29:55

That's or having a situation. I don't know.

SPEAKER_08 1:29:58

That is if you're explaining to her though that you needed to use a lot on your plate and you're only available for this, and she puts it.

SPEAKER_03 1:30:08

But if you're not only available for this, if you're randomly texting me, hey, let's go get a burger or let's go get a bigger one.

SPEAKER_06 1:30:14

That's like a little I'm talking to you throughout the day.

SPEAKER_08 1:30:16

I know that, but I'm saying after he just laid it down, he's like, damn, I'm kind of hungry.

SPEAKER_03 1:30:19

Let's go grab something to eat. But he's also saying, like, it may be a moment where he wants to go take a shot, go get a shot after work, or like, you know, go get drunk after work, and he wants to choose her to go with.

SPEAKER_08 1:30:30

Maybe he wants to take a couple like shots or after after work dinner because he's like, yo, because we pulling up and sliding later.

SPEAKER_02 1:30:37

All right. Well, I think both sides are too difficult to do. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_06 1:30:45

So if you're in the field, pick the side, Delilah. That's all I'm saying. Why are you saying that's right?

SPEAKER_02 1:30:50

Why did you both aggressive? I was on your side when I started relationships and turning into relationships.

SPEAKER_03 1:30:59

I like that for y'all.

SPEAKER_06 1:31:00

Alright, before we wrap it up, y'all. We're gonna finish it out with uh what are you looking forward to this week, Bridget?

SPEAKER_03 1:31:06

Oh, this week, my mom's birthday coming out.

SPEAKER_06 1:31:08

Oh, big book, big book, but crazy.

SPEAKER_02 1:31:19

Yeah, wait for Leo C is we can. We got time.
